Report - NGO Impact Initiative - An Assessment by the International Humanitarian NGO Community
Description

This synthesis report is a collaborative effort between the UN Secretary-General’s Special Envoy for Tsunami Recovery, and US, European, Australian and Asian NGOs. It addresses five critical challenges that international NGOs regularly face in recovery operations, which have been brought into stark relief during the post-tsunami effort: accountability to beneficiaries; enhancing efforts at local capacity building; professionalism; coordination; and human rights and disaster recovery.
